Milence inaugurates first electric truck charging hub in Italy
The opening of the hub in Italy is the thirteenth to be operational in the Milence network. There, the company confirmed its target to have 1,700 charging points in operation in Europe by 2027. Milence’s hubs are equipped with some of the highest power outputs available today, offering 400 kW through CCS chargers, namely from Italian charging system manufacturer Alpitronic.
On February 20, Milence has inaugurated its first electric truck charging hub in Italy. The hub is located in Bagnolo San Vito, in the province of Mantua, Northern Italy. It is also quite close to Verona and just aside the highway going from Modena to the borders with Austria, along one of the key corridors detected in Europe for the future of road transport, namely the Scandinavia-Mediterranean corridor.
More into details, the A22 is an essential motorway in Italy, connecting the Po Valley (a major industrial and agricultural region), the city of Modena, and the A1 Motorway with Austria. This area also serves as a significant gateway to Italy, linking the industrial heart of northern Italy to the harbours in southern Italy.

The new Milence hub is open to e-trucks from all brands
As usual, Milence ensures accessibility and transparency for all users with a robust payment system. Partnerships with leading e-Mobility Service Providers (eMSPs) enable drivers to pay using a variety of charging cards. Direct payment using a bank card is also available. The default charging tariff is €0.399 per kWh (excluding VAT).
“The opening of our first hub in Italy demonstrates our commitment to bring all industry stakeholders together, to create a platform that drives the next breakthrough in sustainable transport. This hub provides Italy with a solid foundation to meet the growing demand for zero-emission transport solutions. It marks a significant leap towards the future of road transport in Italy and across Europe as we move towards a sustainable and carbon neutral future”, commented Milence CEO, Anja van Niersen.
